The term “mneme” (by Richard Semon) or “meme” (coined by Richard Dawkins) in its original sense, refers to any unit of cultural information, such as ideas, theories or even news, tastes and now (too often) rumours, which one mind can transmit to another mind – a propagable unit of cultural information: the cultural version of the biological gene concept.
